Don't get me wrong, Eclipse is cool and the price is nice. But IntelliJ.... thats where its at :)

I must admit. Since the hoopla a few weeks ago about Eclipse this and Eclipse that......I decided to download it and try it out......WOW!!!!!!! I was a big NetBeans advocate, but now I'm hooked on Eclipse and I haven't looked back since.Can you believe how it resolves the import statements? Hell, you can just delete them all, then select 'Organize Imports' and it will rip through the classpath and group and fix all imports to what they should have been........come on.....you gotta love that. My personal favorite....Hierarchy view, just F4 on a class, package, or source folder and you get an instant overview (inheritance hieratical treeview) from java.lang.Object to lowest subclass.....who needs a diagram when you've got this?

In my defense, several of the files had import javax.servlet.* which violates the current import practice (a practice I disagree with but follow nonetheless). Also, some of the imports were no longer needed and Eclipse removed them. The tiles code in particular did not follow the java standard coding guidelines so I formatted those as well. I apologize for the inconvenience; from now on, I'll commit appropriate formatting changes separately.

Can we all agree to separate code changes with format changes? I usually check every commit to see if it impacts something I might be working on (bug fix or personal dev) and as I was browsing my mail this morning, I found that reading through a couple of "recentcommits " <wink/>was giving me a migraine. Finding the actual code changes wasimpossible.In fact, we probably should not be using our IDE's 'reformat' features unless the current page formatting is complete crap. If we each reformat every time we open and change a file. We will see battlesemerging betweenJBuilder, NetBeans, Eclipse, and others. If that sounds feasible, I would also recommend to those of us just using text editors to turn off the 'trim trailing spaces' when saving. This causes just as much of a headache. Your thoughts?

I would like to point out, however, that you only waited 3 hours for feedback. Not all of us are in the same country, let alone the sametimezone. Cedric, for example, had no hope of responding intime, unless hehappened to be reading Struts mail at around 3am his time (myestimate).Even those of us in an appropriate time zone are not all constantly checking mail to struts-dev. Given your statement that you "would hate to do this andhave to backoutthe changes" (which I understand :), I would suggest that youmight want toallow more time for people to respond before going ahead withchanges likethis. Otherwise, you do leave yourself open to having to back out the changes. -- Martin CooperDavidFrom: Eddie Bush <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Reply-To: "Struts Developers List"<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>To: Struts Developers List <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Re: Replacing Action.* with Globals.* Date: Tue, 12 Nov 2002 09:41:04 -0600 Well, we're headed toward using Globals instead of Actionfor this purpose,so I'd think it would be highly desirable for the internalcode to usethose constants located in Globals. ... The Action constants can't go away yet (at least Ibelieve that's thedecision that was arrived at), but I can't see wherechanging internal codeto use Global references over Action references would be a badthing.David Graham wrote:Is it ok to replace the Action constant references withGlobals constantreferences in the Struts code?
